Several reputable news outlets (and CNN) are reporting tonight that an arrest has been made in connection with ricin-tainted letters mailed to Washington, D.C. Thanks to CNN’s performance earlier today, plenty are hesitant to believe the news, but we do have a name in the case: Kenneth Curtis of Tupelo, Miss. Curtis is being called a “frequent letter writer” to the Capitol.

All of those people joking about the media getting it wrong weren’t joking after all. As NBC’s Andrea Mitchell notes, news outlets are now calling the suspect by his actual name. Kenneth Curtis of Tupelo is now Paul Kevin Curtis of Corinth, Miss.

FBI now identifies Tupelo suspect as Paul Kevin Curtis arrested for ricin letters to Sen Wicker and President Obama @nbcnightlynews
